Visit No 02

There’s a very good chance the title of this review will keep growing - this property is just that good. We’ve already booked visit number three! If there’s any downside, it’s that the place is becoming so popular it might soon be impossible to find an available week. It truly is that exceptional. This is five-star accommodation and then some. I doubt you’ll find anywhere else with the same breathtaking views or the high standard of comfort and finish. We can’t wait to return!

Amazing Place

We had a wonderful time in this amazing location staying in accommodation which in our opinion was fantastic. The house is unique, spacious and very comfortable. The design maximises the idyllic location on the bank of Loch Lundie with views of the loch and surrounding hills. We particularly enjoyed walking to Plockton and around the nearby forest. It was great to relax in the hot tub and admire the scenery. Using the rowing boat to cross the loch was also memorable and fun. We were so impressed that we booked to return in 2026 whilst we were there.

Excellent stay in every way

We had an excellent stay at The Sheiling. The property is amazing - location is spectacular, everything about the property is really high-end, and ending each day in the hot tub with those views was just perfect. Lots to do in the surrounding area as well which is an added bonus. Highly recommended.

Wonderful relaxing break

What a beautiful location to enjoy a perfect relaxing break. We were fortunate enough to have glorious sunshine and spent most of the day either on the decking or out on the loch in the rowing boat. This wad our second visit and I was delighted that the Shieling has retained its high standards of comfort. The nightly visits from the pine martin were a joy and the solitude of this beautiful location allows you time to breathe and de stress. I would definitely recommend a stay to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Exceptional accommodation and amazing location

The Sheiling is an amazing find, beautiful setting, great accommodation and the private loch was great for wild swimming, boating and fishing. Plockton is a 5 minute drive away and this picturesque village has a great range of amenities, in particular Plockton Shores which has an excellent of seafood. Now we’ve experienced The Sheiling we will be definitely be back for more.

Idyllic Stay

The house is perfect and the views are amazing. A true 5 star retreat. Having access to the rowing boat is an added bonus. I definitely hope to return.

Chill out holiday

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sheiling despite the very disappointing weather. 5star accommodation in a 5star location. My husband summed up our stay. Who would have thought I could cast my fishing line from the decking, come back in to a lovely room and watch the Olympics whilst keeping my eye on my line. You have got to make the most of the situation when the weather is rotten!

Beautiful house in sublime location

Just returned from a weeklong vacation at the Sheiling, the house is magical in a setting that is fantastic. Our stay was excellent from arriving to find the welcome basket to unfortunately having to leave a week later. The house is very well appointed with great kitchen and bedroom fittings and. brilliant showers. Went out fishing on the loch from the little rowing boat and caught a couple of brown trout and some good sized perch. Hot tub was great to relax in at night after a days fishing. Hosts were very helpful when contacted and we will hope to return next year

The Sheiling is In a class of its own

Everything about the Sheiling is just beautiful - the unique build, fantastic location and stylish and well equipped interior. Stunning views and peaceful location come as standard here. We loved taking the boat out for a picnic, and relaxing in the hot tub looking at the stars. This was our 2nd visit and we're already planning the 3rd.

Living the dream again

The Sheiling is an outstanding build on its very ‘own loch’ with spectacular views in all weather conditions. Martin & Mairi have created a unique and stunning property. Design and quality exceptional, furniture & fittings first class. Decking area with hot tub, barbecue & fire pit great place to relax and chill out. The added bonus of the wee rowing boat to explore the loch just makes this place so special. This was our 4th visit and already booked to return next year. I would highly recommended this accommodation, great base also to explore Plockton & Skye Lived the dream again

Return visit..........

This was our second stay at the Sheiling and once again we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. We were lucky enough to experience the Northern Lights on the Saturday. This time we were also treated to several visits from the Pine Martens, we counted three different ones, the last being a kit probably one year old, they provided great entertainment. Again we made good use of the BBQ & Hot Tub. The location is fantastic and a great base for exploring the area. Thanks again to Martin & Mairi.

Stunning location for peace and privacy

We have wanted to visit The Sheiling since it won Britain's best holiday home award in 2021. It was well worth the wait. The location on Loch Lundie is surrounded by stunning views of the loch, forests and hills. We enjoyed total peace and privacy. There are many places to visit within a short drive. We enjoyed many long walks on Skye and driving our classic car on the quiet highland roads. The house was immaculate and exceptionally well-appointed. We loved our visit to celebrate our silver anniversary and highly recommend The Sheiling.

Breathtaking hideaway

Very well equipped and surprising house in an idyllic setting. Very well located to discover the area as well as the Isle of Skye, though the silence on the lake may just keep you around the house to relax. End your days and watch the sunset in the hot tub with a superbe view on the lake.

Great week

Beautiful peacefull setting, views from the house outstanding. We were lucky enough to have great weather mostly, but even the day it rained did not detract. The house itself was immaculate and had everything you could possibly want. Would definitely recommend it.

An absolute haven of luxury

We loved our weekend at The Sheiling - wish we could have stayed for longer! We loved looking out over the water under the moonlight, relaxing in the hot tub, taking the boat out on the loch, the most amazing showers, and every home comfort you could wish for. We filled our days with walks, cycles, exploring, shopping and eating and we didn't have to travel more than 4 miles in any direction. There are some great local food places with fabulous hospitality. Can highly recommend it to others - families or couples.

Just Wow

The most amazing and memorable place we have ever stayed. The Sheiling has everything you need, Martin and Māiri really have thought of everything. The seclusion, tranquility and scenery of this very special place are things we will never forget. The only negative is that we have to leave this beautiful place, but we will definitely be back.
